SOPHOMORES HOLD LIVELY BOB PARTY Citizens of Ogden, last Wednesday afternoon, were wondering why the snow went away so quickly. They attributed the fact to Old King Sol; but the real cause was the friction of the steel runners on the six bob sleighs. This party, in the opinion of the Sophs, was the classiest, peppiest, most successful one of Mts kind given this season. It gave everyone the spirit of n good time when six sleighs drawn by high-spirited horses, with ! tingling hells, drove up, loaded with j fto sophomores and eight chaperons. ; lvas a g-ata day for the crowd and ; everyone on the streets who happened no see the party pass was forced to acknowledge either by words, looks or snowballs that it was a real "peppy" crowd. After sleighing two hours they returned to Weber where the most interesting feature of the party awaited them. Mrs. Tanner had a most splendid banquet prepared. Fruit salad, chocolate cake, hot chili and rolls were served. The chili and rolls were especially good and Mrs. Tanner can never know how good it tasted to a hungry sleighing party. After parta king of the wonderful but were honintr that another nartv would be planned soon. The students wish to extend their appreciation to Professor Harvey Tay- lor, for his rplendid leadership and neu neinea to mane tne atte "pep" helped to make the afternoon a success; to Mrs. Lydia Tanner for her wonderful deficious banquet; to Professor Blaylock. for his very clever sayings, and to all the members of'l the faculty who joined the happy sophs. which made the party the success it was. i EXCLUSION OF .

BEST SLOGAN CONTEST FOR GIRLS IS OPEN The Wilson shoe parlor has offered a first prize of a $10 pair of slippers and a second prize of a $7.50 pair of slippers for the best slogans for the shoe store written by a girl of Weber Normal. The ad appearing in this issue gives some information on the contest. The only qualification is that 1 lie writer must be a female from the W. N. C. The student must write a slogan for the Wilson Shoe Parlor, situated in the rear of Clark's Fashion Shop. Two of the slogans that they have been using but wish to improve are, Smart Styles for Women," and "Thir ty-six Hours from Broadway." Some other slogans used iu the city are "See Us First," "Eventually. Why Not Now," "A Good Place to Trade," "Where the Women Trade." "Meet Me Bareheaded," "If You Are Not On the Sunny Side, Walk Over," and "Where Your Dollars Have More Cents." The object is to write a suitable slogan for this store. Girls, let's see some of you wearing these new slippers. 00 PROFESSOR MAKES BOLD CHALLENGE On the day before the last school play Professor ''Ernie" Wilkinson was Ifiii.i pniinninsm Sn foil m.t Ita marie a eh;i11en?e tn iho i inninr liovs to literallv fulfill the nrnnhPov n limit.

Tuesday morning in the weekly personal hygiene class, Mr. Barrett gave a very interesting and beneficial lecture on the subject of heredity. He began with reading a paragraph from a history of a family in which heredity had been almost disastrous. He said that the mechanism of heredity was centered in the chromosomes, Inch had in the nucleus of the germ jceI1. and tha the chromosomes passed . i: through generations and carried the inheritable traits which 'are endowed by the parents upon their children. In referring to the percentage of traits a person inherits from his lineage he said that the man received one-half of his traits from his parents, one-fourth from his grandparents, one-sixteenth from his great grandparents and so on ba.ck through generations. These traits are constantly altered by the addition of new traits from both paints. In a case where relatives marry a,nd have children, the predominant traits of both man and wife are accentuated in their offspring. If they are bad their child receives a large portion of bad qualities; if good it receives an exceptional quantity of good traits. That the germs which carry inheritable traits are actually present in the chromosomes is conclusively proven by microscopical evidence. Evidence is also furnished by experiments that the quality of the germ cell can not be changed by the individual. An it raits acquired during life cannot be passed on. but the heritage of the race, which is our civilization, is inheritable. General experiments show that any acquisition obtained through an earthly experience cannot be per petuated in the progeny of a family Although afcohol temporarily poisons me. fceiiu pmu, sheep's tails for the past 1000 years does not effect' the new-born lamb. Mr. Barrett said they were born with their tails in spite of this fact. A theory that attempts to prove that acquired - characteristics are in heritable, has been upset by the dis coverv of a pre-historlc Egyptian' . ... mummy, wn.cn iiasa iuui r y . Ours.

Syphilis, as it exists in a. developed stage, cannot be passed from a parent to a child. However, a child may ba born with the syphilis germ tn its system, having contracted It from the mother. Mr. Barrett concluded wit these words: "Myriads of experiences on In heritance of acquired characteristics cem to show they are not Inherited. ! All-wise Providence has so well isolated and insulated that priceless heritage we receive from our ancestors that life, although we are its trustee, (has little affect upon it.

The good that has already been obtained in the few weekly meetings has caused the boys to look forward to Tuesday with eagerness.

Penrose reached Ins ninetieth mile-, i siuiie. in nun or ui ins on l huh , an; ' in iiic warns in ine ujuiuj uciu iit ' ting programs in their regular meet- ings to commerate him. On Monday, 6. the devotional hour at the Weber Normal college was devoted to his memory. The song, "O, Ve Mountains High," was sung by thej members of the student body fi nd a 1 short talk was given by Dr. Terry. 3 n his talk, Dr. Terry emphasized President Penrose's leadership, his lofty thoughts and spirit, and his good work in the church. He told some. in- ct dents in the life of President Penrose to substantiate these characteristics.President Penrose was born in Kng-land. He received the gospel there and became an active worker- Before' he emigrated to Utah he wrote Lis i wonderful hymn, ' Oe, Ye Mountains! High." Since coming to Utah he has acted as a counselor in the S'alt Lake stake, editor of the Deseret News, an apostle in the council of the twelve, second counselor to President Jos. F. Smith and since the recent death of President j Lyman, he has been made first counselor to President Heber J. Grant. He has always been an active leader in the church and at the age of ninety is still doing a great work. CHIVALRY IS NOW PASSING THEY TELL US When that unknown critic made the statement that the 'day of chivalry had passed, he must have been blessed with the gift of foresight, for never before have boys shown less regard for the feelings and desires of the fair sex than now. Regretfully, yea even tearfully, we quote the immortal Brigham and say, "This is the place," for, horrible though the thought may be, chivalry might be a new breakfast food and courtesy a disease as far as Weber boys are concerned. No matter- how sweetly the shy maids smile upon them, the young men seem to have as much use for the girls as a camel has for a third hump. Romeo must have been a myth or the figment of a disord-ered brain for who ever heard of a boy j cHmbin& the achoo, sUira tQ fQr a date, much less climb a balcony work to utter sentimental rubbish? Whenever a dance is held in the school the girls must gather in crowds and hurry fearfully along, in the dark unescorted.

At the present time the utter disregard for the sacredness of marriage is causing much anxiety among the leaders of the nation. The Church of Jesus Christ of Lat- 1 ter-Day Saints is deeply concerned ' over the fact that less than 50 per cent of the young people of the church are ! marrying in the temple. The young I people perhaps do not realize the fact J that thev are stepping down from a c ,,, t .,. ,u,. . - hirthnhf n riage in the temple. The Illustrations Mrs. Lloyd gave were very impressive. oo MUSIC ARTS CLUB HOLDS MEETING The regular meeting of the M ustc ; Arts club was held Monday, February Mr. Wallace Budge, president of , the club, presided The new constitu-i tion was read and accepted afteran amendment was made for Article 1, Section 3. The program consisted of a lecture on the beauties of opera music, by Professor W. H. .Manning, h selec tions on the Victro-a. The special se lection was "Home to Our Mountains" from "II Trovatore." In addition Mr. Manning related many of thr-experience he had whi! nt.'-nning i h " opera in Germany. Hi '-alk was ;h"r-oushiy enjoyed by all ihote present. IE mm B DEI Gil GIN T SHE OF Wildcats to Mix With Peach City Lads in Toss for Division Title OPPOSITION EXPECTED Regular String Quint Will Be m Shipshape Condition 1 On Friday evening, February 17, at the Box Rider High school, the scene will be set for one of Ihe toughest and hardest fought games of the season. We must beat Box Elder. If wc do we wilt take t he division championship. If we lose we will be, tied with Box Elder for first place and another game will have lo he played on a neutral floor to deohb-between the two schools. Nevertheless, we now have a pkn'C in 'Into ur name ni cinched as two 1 -a n is from this division will be repres.-nb-d there. Coach Malcolm Watson states that the regular toaiti consisting of Bud 40 and Touch as forwards, Jones as center. Anderson and Halliday as guards will be started in the game. The:-; men are in good trim, with the exception that "Bonesy" and "Pete" h;.-ve weak ankles, and will undoubted'- play first class ball. The game last year with Box Kld-'r was the most poorly attended of that season. About 100 students traveh d to the Peach city and the Brigham boys defeated Weber by a 2 1 to I t score. We cannot afford to let them duplicate the act this season. The Brigham i I es have one of tho most spirited student bod ies in tij state and Weber will be up against the hardest job she has yet tackled. It will be man for roan on the floor and yell for yell on the sidelines. Brighnm's quint has worked a form of play that will be hard to beat. P is commonly known in sport circles as the five man defense. The play will undoubtedly work well on their own floor, but Coach Watson has solved their scheme nnd is confident that the Wildcats will break it up. When Weber has gone to the stale tournament before some of 1he boys pawned their watches and other valuables to obtain the necessary wherewithal to attend the tryouts. Tt is hoped that a similar spirit will be shown this year if necessary and that the students will back tre team to the limit and by such action we will undoubtedly win honors this year. -00- DREAM INCIDENT GIVEN BY STUDENT mi invest igat ing I ho absence of Professor Harvey Taylor, President Ricks of Weber college entered tho Griggs building, finding Taylor in a prostrate condition. After a doctor had been summoned Harvey regained consciousness and related his story. He said that while correct nig pa pers of his history students he b;camo faint and made severa 1 attempts to get to the outside but failed because he was too weak. He said the music that descended about him was of such on intolerable nature that he was unable to move and was soon overcome by it. In questioning Ernest Nichols as to the person playing at the time of the mishap, Alt Halverson was found to be the owner of the unearthly sounds. The doctor reports that unless something is done to prevent this music. Harvey Taylor will have ; o give up his occupation as a professor at Weber.

SOPHOMORES HOLD LIVELY BOB PARTY Citizens of Ogden, last Wednesday afternoon, were wondering why the snow went away so quickly. They attributed the fact to Old King Sol; but the real cause was the friction of the steel runners on the six bob sleighs. This party, in the opinion of the Sophs, was the classiest, peppiest, most successful one of Mts kind given this season. It gave everyone the spirit of n good time when six sleighs drawn by high-spirited horses, with ! tingling hells, drove up, loaded with j fto sophomores and eight chaperons. ; lvas a g-ata day for the crowd and ; everyone on the streets who happened no see the party pass was forced to acknowledge either by words, looks or snowballs that it was a real "peppy" crowd. After sleighing two hours they returned to Weber where the most interesting feature of the party awaited them. Mrs. Tanner had a most splendid banquet prepared. Fruit salad, chocolate cake, hot chili and rolls were served. The chili and rolls were especially good and Mrs. Tanner can never know how good it tasted to a hungry sleighing party. After parta king of the wonderful but were honintr that another nartv would be planned soon. The students wish to extend their appreciation to Professor Harvey Tay- lor, for his rplendid leadership and neu neinea to mane tne atte "pep" helped to make the afternoon a success; to Mrs. Lydia Tanner for her wonderful deficious banquet; to Professor Blaylock. for his very clever sayings, and to all the members of'l the faculty who joined the happy sophs. which made the party the success it was. i EXCLUSION OF . SLUFFERS MADE 1 Students who are in the habit of forgetting excuses and getting on the exclusion list had better stop, look and listen for the faculty members have decided to take stringent meas-i ures against such offenders.

BEST SLOGAN CONTEST FOR GIRLS IS OPEN The Wilson shoe parlor has offered a first prize of a $10 pair of slippers and a second prize of a $7.50 pair of slippers for the best slogans for the shoe store written by a girl of Weber Normal. The ad appearing in this issue gives some information on the contest. The only qualification is that 1 lie writer must be a female from the W. N. C. The student must write a slogan for the Wilson Shoe Parlor, situated in the rear of Clark's Fashion Shop. Two of the slogans that they have been using but wish to improve are, Smart Styles for Women," and "Thir ty-six Hours from Broadway." Some other slogans used iu the city are "See Us First," "Eventually. Why Not Now," "A Good Place to Trade," "Where the Women Trade." "Meet Me Bareheaded," "If You Are Not On the Sunny Side, Walk Over," and "Where Your Dollars Have More Cents." The object is to write a suitable slogan for this store. Girls, let's see some of you wearing these new slippers. 00 PROFESSOR MAKES BOLD CHALLENGE On the day before the last school play Professor ''Ernie" Wilkinson was Ifiii.i pniinninsm Sn foil m.t Ita marie a eh;i11en?e tn iho i inninr liovs to literallv fulfill the nrnnhPov n limit.

Tuesday morning in the weekly personal hygiene class, Mr. Barrett gave a very interesting and beneficial lecture on the subject of heredity. He began with reading a paragraph from a history of a family in which heredity had been almost disastrous. He said that the mechanism of heredity was centered in the chromosomes, Inch had in the nucleus of the germ jceI1. and tha the chromosomes passed . i: through generations and carried the inheritable traits which 'are endowed by the parents upon their children. In referring to the percentage of traits a person inherits from his lineage he said that the man received one-half of his traits from his parents, one-fourth from his grandparents, one-sixteenth from his great grandparents and so on ba.ck through generations. These traits are constantly altered by the addition of new traits from both paints. In a case where relatives marry a,nd have children, the predominant traits of both man and wife are accentuated in their offspring. If they are bad their child receives a large portion of bad qualities; if good it receives an exceptional quantity of good traits. That the germs which carry inheritable traits are actually present in the chromosomes is conclusively proven by microscopical evidence. Evidence is also furnished by experiments that the quality of the germ cell can not be changed by the individual. An it raits acquired during life cannot be passed on. but the heritage of the race, which is our civilization, is inheritable. General experiments show that any acquisition obtained through an earthly experience cannot be per petuated in the progeny of a family Although afcohol temporarily poisons me. fceiiu pmu, sheep's tails for the past 1000 years does not effect' the new-born lamb. Mr. Barrett said they were born with their tails in spite of this fact. A theory that attempts to prove that acquired - characteristics are in heritable, has been upset by the dis coverv of a pre-historlc Egyptian' . ... mummy, wn.cn iiasa iuui r y . Ours. AJie lliuory auoaivcu 111c jucv that our little too was once a Big toe, out DeuiuM "u .... proper exercise it has decreased tn size. The attempt of the Chinese lady to make her feet small has been futile. The naoy sxui persist in oe-1 in;? born with a normal root. tm will no doubt be discouraging to some of our girls who are trying to entaet their children with small feet.) Syphilis, as it exists in a. developed stage, cannot be passed from a parent to a child. However, a child may ba born with the syphilis germ tn its system, having contracted It from the mother. Mr. Barrett concluded wit these words: "Myriads of experiences on In heritance of acquired characteristics cem to show they are not Inherited. ! All-wise Providence has so well isolated and insulated that priceless heritage we receive from our ancestors that life, although we are its trustee, (has little affect upon it. The next lecture will oe a contmu ation ot Liiib uijtu. -11 week Mr. Barrett will take up niar- triage as viewed from a biological 'standpoint.

The good that has already been obtained in the few weekly meetings has caused the boys to look forward to Tuesday with eagerness.

Ninetieth Birthday of Well Known Church Member Oihc?iQVirf.( ' 1 r V reuxua,-v . . . " 1 . : W. Penrose reached Ins ninetieth mile-, i siuiie. in nun or ui ins on l huh , an; ' in iiic warns in ine ujuiuj uciu iit ' ting programs in their regular meet- ings to commerate him. On Monday, 6. the devotional hour at the Weber Normal college was devoted to his memory. The song, "O, Ve Mountains High," was sung by thej members of the student body fi nd a 1 short talk was given by Dr. Terry. 3 n his talk, Dr. Terry emphasized President Penrose's leadership, his lofty thoughts and spirit, and his good work in the church. He told some. in- ct dents in the life of President Penrose to substantiate these characteristics.President Penrose was born in Kng-land. He received the gospel there and became an active worker- Before' he emigrated to Utah he wrote Lis i wonderful hymn, ' Oe, Ye Mountains! High." Since coming to Utah he has acted as a counselor in the S'alt Lake stake, editor of the Deseret News, an apostle in the council of the twelve, second counselor to President Jos. F. Smith and since the recent death of President j Lyman, he has been made first counselor to President Heber J. Grant. He has always been an active leader in the church and at the age of ninety is still doing a great work. CHIVALRY IS NOW PASSING THEY TELL US When that unknown critic made the statement that the 'day of chivalry had passed, he must have been blessed with the gift of foresight, for never before have boys shown less regard for the feelings and desires of the fair sex than now. Regretfully, yea even tearfully, we quote the immortal Brigham and say, "This is the place," for, horrible though the thought may be, chivalry might be a new breakfast food and courtesy a disease as far as Weber boys are concerned. No matter- how sweetly the shy maids smile upon them, the young men seem to have as much use for the girls as a camel has for a third hump. Romeo must have been a myth or the figment of a disord-ered brain for who ever heard of a boy j cHmbin& the achoo, sUira tQ fQr a date, much less climb a balcony work to utter sentimental rubbish? Whenever a dance is held in the school the girls must gather in crowds and hurry fearfully along, in the dark unescorted.

At the present time the utter disregard for the sacredness of marriage is causing much anxiety among the leaders of the nation. The Church of Jesus Christ of Lat- 1 ter-Day Saints is deeply concerned ' over the fact that less than 50 per cent of the young people of the church are ! marrying in the temple. The young I people perhaps do not realize the fact J that thev are stepping down from a c ,,, t .,. ,u,. . - hirthnhf n riage in the temple. The Illustrations Mrs. Lloyd gave were very impressive. oo MUSIC ARTS CLUB HOLDS MEETING The regular meeting of the M ustc ; Arts club was held Monday, February Mr. Wallace Budge, president of , the club, presided The new constitu-i tion was read and accepted afteran amendment was made for Article 1, Section 3. The program consisted of a lecture on the beauties of opera music, by Professor W. H. .Manning, h selec tions on the Victro-a. The special se lection was "Home to Our Mountains" from "II Trovatore." In addition Mr. Manning related many of thr-experience he had whi! nt.'-nning i h " opera in Germany. Hi '-alk was ;h"r-oushiy enjoyed by all ihote present. IE mm B DEI Gil GIN T SHE OF Wildcats to Mix With Peach City Lads in Toss for Division Title OPPOSITION EXPECTED Regular String Quint Will Be m Shipshape Condition 1 On Friday evening, February 17, at the Box Rider High school, the scene will be set for one of Ihe toughest and hardest fought games of the season. We must beat Box Elder. If wc do we wilt take t he division championship. If we lose we will be, tied with Box Elder for first place and another game will have lo he played on a neutral floor to deohb-between the two schools. Nevertheless, we now have a pkn'C in 'Into ur name ni cinched as two 1 -a n is from this division will be repres.-nb-d there. Coach Malcolm Watson states that the regular toaiti consisting of Bud 40 and Touch as forwards, Jones as center. Anderson and Halliday as guards will be started in the game. The:-; men are in good trim, with the exception that "Bonesy" and "Pete" h;.-ve weak ankles, and will undoubted'- play first class ball. The game last year with Box Kld-'r was the most poorly attended of that season. About 100 students traveh d to the Peach city and the Brigham boys defeated Weber by a 2 1 to I t score. We cannot afford to let them duplicate the act this season. The Brigham i I es have one of tho most spirited student bod ies in tij state and Weber will be up against the hardest job she has yet tackled. It will be man for roan on the floor and yell for yell on the sidelines. Brighnm's quint has worked a form of play that will be hard to beat. P is commonly known in sport circles as the five man defense. The play will undoubtedly work well on their own floor, but Coach Watson has solved their scheme nnd is confident that the Wildcats will break it up.
